Description:
About the likely result of certain long term relationships....I think....
Lyrics:
WHISPER ON THE WIND.
When we were young and wild and hot and free
We couldn’t see the forest for the trees.
Life was there for the taking and it was all in our making
But somewhere we hit a wall and it brought us to our knees.
It wasn’t that we didn’t understand
The difference between a woman and a man.
Role reversal or holding, holding some other hand
But somewhere we hit a wall and it took us somewhere bad….
Now it seems like it will never come again
It’s on some other road to avoid the pain.
And it haunts me still with a subtle and soft refrain
And with a whisper on the wind, you’re here again.
But it’s only a misguided dumb daydream.
Bittersweet but tainted like bad cream.
With a use-by date that passed us by
We grew old but didn’t know it.
And somewhere we hit a wall and we both let out a scream….
Hardware:
Stratocaster on solos....12 string Schector on chords. Direct to Yamaha mixer via Zoom guitar pedal used also for vocals. No amps used.
Software:
Cakewalk Sonar 6 and WaveLab.

your songs are always well structured, but I think you've excelled on this one.. Brilliant. You've got to have lived to write lyrics like that.. excellent and the guitars and backing so full and rich...love the solo sounds...really different and of course your vocals are really worked to the hilt.. Love it [ Reply to This ]
One of the best I've heard from you Dennis &mdash 11/19/07 - 05:49:19 PM
Love the overall feel of this one. The music has great energy, the lyrics make sense and tell a story too many of us can relate to I'm afraid. You did an outstanding job on the vocals on this song Dennis, Kudos on that.
My only complaint is that I had to read the lyrics to really get the meaning of it. Up the vox just a tad my friend cause there's plenty of us out here with hearing loss in the aging population that's listening.
Except for the deaf mans lament, this is a fabulous mix and a great song Dennis. Thanks for sharing.

Lyrics.. &mdash 11/20/07 - 10:53:31 PM
..are tough to understand, as Ed said above. I do like the drive of this piece and the excellent guitar work throughout. Nice lead stuff in the middle that gives the bridge a very special and unique life of its own. I am not much of a poet, but "the forest for the trees" business is a little overused. You have so many other great ideas here. Maybe that line can find some other expression. Just my thought on it. ... I enjoyed your solid performance and general mix...Up the vocals...or drop back the band a tad. Glad I heard this number.
Peace.

Perfect &mdash 11/22/07 - 09:32:49 AM
I'm at first struck by the PERFECT tempo of this. Sometimes the perfect tempo is hard to find even though it seems like not that big a deal. Second I am struck by your structure. You gave us even more guitar solo in this than you usually do and that is good cause I love your playing and the tone you give us on the guitars (all of them).
You also have the ability to hit home with me as far as lyrics are concerned. Your opening stanza is a perfect statement of the way I often feel about the course of my life and my generation. While the forest for the trees seems like it is overused, it also makes the line accessible and shows a perfect contempt (because it is a cliche) for our stupidity in our lost youth.
Thanks for writing and posting this.
As always, I remain a true fan.
